A few months after Vecna's defeat, the small town of Hawkins, Indiana finds itself returning back to normal. At least for most. High school student Eddie Munson cannot seem to recover from the traumatic events experienced after surviving a near death experience in the Upside Down, and confides in drugs and alcohol as an escape from reality. When his uncle learns of this, he reaches out to Eddie's friends for help to get him on the right path. Unlikely, Steve Harrington steps up to the plate and offers to help as best as he can. In time, though, he begins to fall for Eddie, and the two reluctantly fall for one another. However, the strong, sweet, romantic feeling of ecstasy can only last for so long, something that the two are forced to face unwillingly.

This is a Stranger Things fanfiction.
Steve Harrington x Eddie Munson!!!
This fic is based off of Stranger Things but it doesn't follow the storyline of the show! It has different concepts and different plans to how things go. Some things are the same, some things are different. Everyone is the ages that they are in Season Four, for clarity.
Here's a preview :)
"Can I?" Steve asked, he didn't want to invade Eddie's personal space or make him uncomfortable like Dustin did earlier. To Steve's surprise, Eddie nodded. That was all it took for Steve to wrap his arms around Eddie's waist and hold him. For some reason, some really fucking strange reason, Eddie had sparks in his heart.
If you read this, I hope you enjoy!
